I Came Across This Quote By Jeffrey Eugenides, "Can You See Me? All Of Me? Probably Not. No One Ever

i came across this quote by jeffrey eugenides, "Can you see me? All of me? Probably not. No one ever really has." and my thoughts immediately went straight to huaisang. that mask of his is so well crafted that i don't think even wwx has truly seen through it. even in the cloud recesses, huaisang was seen as basically the coward and slacker, and wwx probably didnt think much about who he actually was, aaaaaaaaaand now im sad. great. because its likely after canon no one trusted him enough to actually get to know him, and thinking of nhs living his entire life with no one understanding him truly...

imagine you’re going on an adventure with the person you love most in the whole world. but every step you take to get closer to the end drains him and there’s nothing you can do to help, not really. you can’t take the weight off his shoulders. more than anything, you want to protect him, but even that becomes more difficult with each passing day. so instead you try to comfort him. you hold his hand through the day and him through the night. he wakes up in your arms and, for a moment, forgets everything else. also gollum is there

i was looking at mafuyu cards today, and i realised something.

before mafuyu left her mother, her expression in her cards were more or less all very severe, sad, angry, or a mix. they were also very sad, dark, depressing backgrounds, etc. but after she left and escaped to kanade, the cards become lighter, happier, brighter. she's even smiling in a cat-eared ghost guide untrained! not only that, she's not frowning anymore, her eyes also have more light in them. in almost none of them is she actually frowning, more so just having a neutral expression, but its already an improvement. it just feels like she's slowly healing away from that bitch and with niigo, and thats amazing. just...a thought i wanted to share :D

ik maybe 2 or 3 ppl are gonna get what i mean by this but qi rong and barty crouch jr. are oddly similar in very concerning ways

i think voltron is the only fandom that i've ever been in that modern aus are set in the past from the canonverse...
